- Known designers: Marcelo Matere (packaging artist)
- Part of the second wave of the Marvel Crossovers toyline, the Human Torch turns from an orange and silver robot into a jet of some sort, with both modes having lots of translucent flame detailing. He is equipped with two spring-loaded missile launchers (with missiles made of fire, naturally) attached to his arms in robot mode and wings in jet mode. Pressing the Fantastic Four emblem on his chest causes his head to pop up and his chest panels to spread open.
- Human Torch (Marvel,
2010)- Accessories: 2 missiles
- A redeco of the previous toy based on Torch's outfit when he's not flaming on. His opaque plastic is now colored black and blue, while the orange translucent flames have been left alone.
- This toy, alongside the Punisher, was showcased at San Diego Comic-Con 2009, but was reported canceled during a Q&A session with Marvel Comics the next year.[1]
